EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Halley's Comet as it graced the skies in 1910. Taken on May 12th from Honolulu, this remarkable image was captured using a powerful 10-inch focus Tessar lens. The comet, known for its periodic appearances throughout history, mesmerized astronomers and stargazers alike during this turn of the century exploration of space. The photograph transports us back to a time when space exploration was still in its early stages, offering a glimpse into humanity's fascination with the mysteries of the universe. It serves as a reminder of our relentless pursuit to understand and unravel the secrets hidden within the vast expanse above. Halley's Comet itself has been an object of intrigue for centuries, with records dating back to ancient civilizations who observed its recurring visits. This particular snapshot immortalizes one such visit during that eventful year in 1910 when people around the world marveled at its celestial beauty. As we gaze upon this stunning image today, we are reminded not only of our ancestors' curiosity about outer space but also of our own ongoing quest for knowledge and discovery.
